Important Substitute Rules
- X-Factor substitutes earn 4 points for being named and score points for on-field contributions based on FanCraze's Point System.
- Concussion substitutes (applicable only in T20s, ODs, Tests, T10s, and The Hundred) receive 4 appearance points, plus points for all contributions as per our system.
- Regular substitutes, except for Concussion or X-Factor substitutes, do not earn points for any contributions.
- A player replaced by an X-Factor substitute but returning later will earn points for contributions. A non-announced substitute (other than a Concussion substitute) won't earn points.
- Players transferred between teams may be selectable for their original team until the next update on FanCraze but won't score points during this period.
- A player named in the starting eleven who doesn’t start the match won't score points. Their replacement, however, scores points for that match, including appearance points.
- No deductions for low Strike Rates in Test matches.
- No points for strike rate, economy rates, or maiden overs in ‘The Hundred’ matches.
- Actions in a Super Over or Super Five do not contribute to point tallies.
- Once a match is marked complete and winners declared, points will not be adjusted.
